Do you ever find yourself losing control or reacting in ways you later regret?
Join me as I share real-life stories about how to find calm in the chaos, reclaim your power instead of giving it away, and transform everyday struggles into opportunities for growth and positive change - so you can be the person you truly want to be, no matter what life throws your way.

I screwed up.
I mean, I really screwed up.
It wasn't like an "end of the world" screw-up.
But, it was a screw-up, indeed.
And boy did I feel dumb.
And embarrassed.
And mad at myself.
But I got unstuc…
What is one thing that irritates you in your life?
Maybe it's a person or maybe it's a bad trait or habit that you're trying to kick, but can't.

The foundation for being Emotionally Equipped is the "pause."
My tools, getting unSTUCK, getting CLEAR, and Living Deliberately work best when you know how to incorporate taking pauses throughout the…
Would you consider yourself a judgmental person?
I know I don't.
And yet, I know I am.
And the truth is, I know you are, too.
We all are.
We can't help being judgmental - that's just how the mind wor…
Don't you hate it when bad things happen to you? It's so hard and frustrating and irritating! You just want to blame everyone for it, right?
The problem is, when you do this, you end up playing the v…
When someone is angry, consider it's not about you. Even if you are part of their story, their anger has nothing to do with you. Their anger has to do with them. Their emotions are generated from wit…

And hopefully, the person we wronged will forgive us.
But life can be funny sometimes.
Because sometimes the mistake you thought…
Every time we get stuck we have a choice.
Get unstuck or stay stuck.
It's really as simple as that.
But, as humans, we complicate things.
And so, rather than getting unstuck, we choose to stay stuck …
Do celebrate success in your life?
And by that, I don't mean big successes, like running a marathon, losing a ton of weight, or finishing a Ph.D.
Rather, I mean the small successes that you had to ov…

My husband is planning to participate in the Jerusalem Marathon this week - and I'm so excited for him.
It's been a long time coming and a lot of blood, sweat, and tears to get to this point.
The thi…
The only reason we get stuck in the first place is due to unmet expectations.
The truth is, we don't even realize we're walking around with expectations half the time, but of course, we are.
And it'…
A couple of weeks ago my husband and I went on a retreat.
He surprised me with a totally unexpected gift.
And for that I acknowledged him.
Tune in to hear the story and why acknowledging the people i…
A few days ago, I participated in one of the biggest open-water swimming events in the world: The crossing of the Sea of Galilee.
It was an exciting and exhilarating event.
But the best part was that…
Sometimes we go into future moments believing we know what will happen. In fact, we often do this. We do this because the mind likes things to be predictable. And in that fashion, the mind will predi…
It's so easy (and so very common!) to get insulted.
